Compared to the Crown Skill which I saw from Old Man Reol and the Corrupted King Realm who he fought against, the Crown Skill which I got was in an entirely different category.
An Avatar, eh? It's more than just a clone now. Even if it was based on my Halo Skills, it was too overpowered for a Crown Skill. It totally outclassed the Crest Release. Although it only has 80% of my base stats and 50% of the stats anyone will get upon being buffed by my Domain of Valor, which will be another 15% of both Strength and Endurance as well as 10% of Intelligence. All in all, the Avatar will have more than 90% of my base stats.
However, unlike the clones that can be buffed by both Domain and Bulwark, this Avatar will not be able to receive more buffs from the Jewel Skills where it was derived from. I also don't know if the Totem can be used when summoning it. Since it can increase the efficiency of even the Principal's Clairvoyance, it's fairly possible.
The only downside will be its limited skills. Perhaps the Pillars on the subsequent stages of the King Realm might be able to provide more enhancents for it. I'm not sure though. Old Man Reol's Pillars feels like another set of Skill which will beco the foundation for creating an Empire and reaching Emperor Realm. I can only wait for to reach that point and see.
I'll also ask Avelin and Erin what Crown Skill they got for more reference. When they reached the King Realm, I had those two spar with my Incarnation. However, they only used their Halo-turned-Jewel Skills.
Erin's Jewel Skills were all in one way or another had the properties of 'shadow' or 'stealth' while Avelin's Jewel Skills were all about increasing her strength, she's the embodint of overwhelming brute force. Even that first Augnted Skill she created upon reaching the Augnted Realm beca a skill that disorients her target and strengthens her. Whenever the skill successfully affects her target, her attacks against that one will beco more explosive.
Once, as an Incarnation, I let her hit with that skill and had her attack without holding back. If not for Erin, saving the Incarnation before it was destroyed, I would've received the backlash of 50% stats debuff.
Ah, I got sidetracked upon rembering those two… I guess I'm missing them again. My motivation to go back has just increased.
I still have three breakthroughs to pass through. The next will be…
After another brief calm when the Crown settled on my head, the Dark Energy around stirred for the third ti.
A lot of ti has already passed outside and the clones I sent to block those chasing have long disappeared. However, I have no ti to think about those. I just have to continue and finish all these breakthroughs before they find here.
The Crown which settled on my head disappeared and my body restarted its absorption process to fill up the necessary energy to complete the next one. The ta Pathway.
This ti apart from the absorption of Energy which pushed the Advanced Energy Control to evolve to its next stage, nothing showy happened.
Although it made the surrounding energy create a whirlpool-like effect, that's all it took before it cald down that the only thing I could hear was the sound of my breathing as well as the notification about reaching the next realm.
[Advanced to Diamond Rank Tier-5]
[Advanced Energy Control has evolved to Energy Manipulation]
[Generated a Skill: Energy Linkage]
[Energy Linkage: You now have the ability to temporarily transfer a part of your Energy Control and so of your abilities to soone else through an Energy Connection which soone could ask for permission or be added by you. Not to be confused with Energy Thread which is used to drain soone else's Energy using the previously awakened ability Energy Drain, this ability is a different one entirely. Energy Linkage can also allow anyone connected to you through this ability to communicate telepathically within a certain range. The maximum Energy Control you can cumulatively transfer to soone else or a group of people is 50% and the abilities they can use is including but are not limited to the ones derived from the ta Pathway. However, everything will be in a weakened version and so might not straight-up work depending on how large is the transferred Energy Control. The maintenance cost for the Link to another person is 10 units of Level 1 Energy per 1% Transferred Energy Control]
Transfer my own Energy Control? Does that an I can transfer my Intelligence stat or is it just the control? Although I got the full understanding of this ability, there were things that needed to be tested first before I could be sure of it.
In any case… this one's another Support Skill, huh? But Energy Manipulation… It increased my Energy Control once more. This ans the 1% from before the breakthrough will be incomparable to the 1% now.
The Dark Energy inherent in this world now felt like it beca easier to control than before. In my own estimation, my Energy Control doubled which led closer to the World's Will of the World of Elent's own Energy Control.
The possibility of exceeding the World's Will of a Mortal World's Energy Control is slowly solidifying. At this point, there's already no doubt that if I continue on this path, I can wrest away control of a world from its World's Will with my outrageous Energy Control. Now I can more or less understand the fear of that paranoid World's Will. However, in the end, it's still paranoid. The reception I got from it was in direct contrast to what I got from the World of Elent's World's Will.
… And if I have this ability even back in my previous life, is it possible that I'm a World's Will myself? No. I'm a flesh and blood human. I was even born in this world from my mother's womb. I might not have a mory of my own birth but seeing the parental love my parents gave , there's no way it's all false. Unless their mories were also tampered with… That Principal or whoever's behind him wouldn't do that, right? I could understand him altering Yuko's mories about our childhood but if he also did that to my parents… I don't think I will be able to continue trusting him.
In any case, I might not be a World's Will but I probably have a close connection to it. Especially to the Earth's World's Will that is still unawakened up to this date.
Without that ripped off mory, it prevented from getting closer to the truth, huh? The reason why the Principal couldn't just straight up tell about my real identity is this. He tried to downplay my Adaptability at first for to struggle and realize things by myself.
The reminder he sent through Yumiko and Jayna was probably concerning the Earth's World's Will. And the five orbs I gathered were crucial for its awakening.
For now, this is the closest guess I can make. Without confirmation, it's all my own speculation.
Haa… I'm going to stop my thoughts here and continue breaking through.
As always, the system will be the last to breakthrough as it tries to accommodate the other Pathways first. That's why after another brief calm, the stirring of energy started again. And this ti, a lot stronger than before due to my increased Energy Control. The thick layer of screens which I prepared was now being used to stop the intensity of my Energy from leaking out instead of stopping sobody to pry their eyes inside.
After absorbing a certain amount of Energy, my Main Core which glowed in the silvery-white color of Aether and Void was conjured above my head.
I already know what kind of Secondary Core I will get but of course, it still needs the necessary energy to fully form.
With all the Dark Energy I released from those tanks, I already used up more than half of it. But given that there are only two Pathways left, they will be enough or else… this already dry cavern will be even more dried up if I squeezed every Dark Energy in the surrounding for it to be enough to complete my breakthrough.
A few minutes later, the illusory round vessel which was a little smaller than the Main Elental Core was conjured next to it. The process for the forming of the Second Core rested on the formation of that vessel, what cos next is just filling it up with the Elental Energy designated to it.
Controlling a cloud of Dark Energy and moving it on top of it, the Secondary Core started to condense it as drops of Dark Energy were instantly converted to Aether Elental Energy. From a few drops which trickled inside, it gradually filled up as cloud after cloud of Dark Energy were condensed and converted.
When the Secondary Core completely filled up, it also started to glow in silvery-white color which parted in the middle indicating that the half was Aether and the half was Void.
And as soon as that happened, the notifications once again filled my mind telling my new stage on the Elental Pathway and the slightly underwhelming information on it.
[Advanced to 1st Stage Elental Forming Realm]
[Aether/Void Secondary Core has successfully ford]
[Elental Nodes limit has increased from 6 to 9]
